PPP's twitter feed is pretty amusing.

‏@avs5221
Are you going to start polling @Evan_McMullin anytime soon? Probably ahead of DJT in TX at this point.

@ppppolls
Yes we will poll him but he'll be lucky if he's polling ahead of Harambe and Deez Nuts

LMAO BSOD ++:

Trump Campaign Manager Demanded Media Cover “Terror Attack” That Didn’t Happen


Manafort, speaking on CNN, said that a NATO base in Turkey came under attack. Russian outlets have pushed a similar storyline.

Paul Manafort, campaign chair for Donald Trump’s campaign, said on Sunday that a NATO base in Turkey came under attack by terrorists within the last week, something that did not happen.

Manafort was defending his campaign by pointing to what he claimed were stories that went uncovered last week thanks to the media’s focus on Trump’s statements.

“You had — you had the NATO base in Turkey being under attack by terrorists,” Manafort told CNN’s Jake Tapper during his appearance on State of the Union. “You had a number of things that were appropriate to this campaign, were part of what Mr. Trump has been talking about.”

It’s unclear precisely what Manafort was referring to as no terror attack had been claimed or reported on Incirlik air base in Turkey, last week or ever. The air base is the staging area for US military operations against ISIS.

Flights were halted out of Incirlik during the coup attempt last month, during which power to the base was temporarily cut. Protesters also marched in late July to demand that the U.S. turn over Muhammed Fethullah Gülen, the exiled Turkish figure the government blames for the coup. And on August 10, Secretary of Defense Ashton Carter offered condolences to victims of terror attacks in Turkey — but the attacks were nowhere near Incirlik.

Manafort did not immediately respond to a BuzzFeed News email asking that he clarify his comments, or reveal the source of his information.

Several Russian sites, however, have been quick to report on potential terrorist attacks on NATO bases in Turkey. In late July, Sputnik and RT — both Russian state-controlled media outlets — pointed to a fire near a NATO base in the western Turkey as potential sabotage.

I keep thinking that passively watching an extinction level event for your party isn't a great game plan. I'd rather play an active role and try to avert disaster (and risk even greater problems) than just accept whatever crazy fate The Don brings down.

Joe: People say Trump lacks the temperament. I wish that was all he lacked.

.@VP says someone before event told him: "My aunt owns your house" in Scranton. "Tell them I'm coming," he jokes.

If you get my meaning.

Norwegian Trump supporters are cracking out of their nests in the commentary sections in the newspapers here. It's both entertaining and terrifying to read them.

Suprisingly, there's more support for a third Obama term than Hillary or Trump presidency it seems, haha.

Peeople really like Obama here even though some of his politics have been pretty bad.

I just did a quick check of the debate polls. Hillary is averaging above the RCP average in the 2-way for them, around +9% on Trump. Johnson is polling around 9% in the 4-way. He needs some major endorsements at this rate to get that extra 6% average for debates. Romney, Collins, and Jeb could help him quite a bit, but who knows.

Same in Denmark. I would say the average comment section reflects around 10-15 Trump/anti Hillary "supporters"
